Volume 1 Beacon Fire and Troubled Times Section 56 Re-entry into Linfen
Li Shimin looked at Luo Yu's back as they slowly walked away, and his heart was full of emotion, although Luo Yu had not met for a long time, his knowledge, bearing, and ideas were not the same as today's.
Of course, Li Shimin knows how arrogant Sister is, but this Luo Yu captured her heart in half a year, and all the people who knew them felt that they were a good match, which was strange.
Father is like this, Uncle Niu is like this, even Gao Shilian, who has never seen them, thinks that they should be a couple.
I don't know what magic he has, from last year, when he saw him in a hurry, he knew that he was pretending to be stupid, to getting along with each other recently, Li Shimin always couldn't see through Luo Yu, and always felt that his heart was not in this world.
But since he saw it today, he couldn't feel this kind of ethereal inspiration in Luo Yu, as if Luo Yu's heart had returned to its place, could it be that Sister A influenced him?
Li Shimin shook his head, fortunately he became his brother-in-law, otherwise, the more he knew about Luo Yu, the more he would try his best to get rid of Luo Yu, this person is unpredictable, if it is an enemy, it will be too dangerous.
If Luo Yu knew that Li Shimin had such thoughts, he would definitely run away, whether he went to Nanyang to be an indigenous, or lived in the north and crossed the Bering Strait to the Americas to grow tobacco and peppers, he would never fight for Li Shimin regardless of life and death.
It's a pity that neither of them knows what anyone thinks, so they have become brother-in-law and brother-in-law, and I have to say that creation makes people!
Pingyao County, a small county under the rule of Taiyuan in Jinzhong, is one hundred and twenty miles away from Taiyuan, and the beef produced here Luo Yu has eaten in another time and space, and it is indeed worthy of its name.
The production of Pingyao beef has a long history, the meat is fresh and tender, fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood, mellow and delicious, rich in nutrition, has not seen its meat, first smelled its fragrance, strong fragrance and nose, witnessed its things, the color is red and attractive, and the peculiar effect of nourishing the stomach and strengthening the spleen.
Luo Yu remembered that this was the introduction on the packaging, because he looked at it twice, he was impressed, these four-word words were used very appropriately, and he can still remember it.
Luo Yu told everyone about Pingyao beef when he was resting on the road, but everyone said that they had never heard of it, and Luo Yu remembered that in the original time and space, this Pingyao beef did not begin to appear until the Ming Dynasty, and this time and space should not have appeared, it seems that there is no such blessing.
Think about it, cattle in the Han farming culture, occupy a very important position, during the Tang and Song dynasties, the cattle died of illness and old age had to be reported to the government, where did the ordinary people come from the beef to eat?
I originally planned to try this good snack after I went to Pingyao, but now it seems that it is difficult to get my wish.
Pingyao is located in Jinzhong, there is Taiyuan in the north, Linfen in the south, affected by the war is very small, except for last year's Yang Guangdong conscription of some government soldiers and people, usually nothing major happens.
Looking at the low city walls of Pingyao County and the guards wearing Sui army uniforms, Luo Yu asked everyone: "Are we still entering Pingyao?" ”
The defenders are still wearing Sui army uniforms, the news of Yang Guang's death in Yangzhou should not have reached here, their group of nine people except Luo Yu all carried long swords, hung behind the horse, and rode military horses, the defenders of the city were not easy to talk about, so Luo Yu had this question.
Li Xiuning thought for a while and said: "It's Shen Shi now, and it rained lightly when I set off today, I think it's better to go into the city, otherwise it will be inconvenient to wash." ”
Zhang Yang said: "My subordinates have a good idea, there is a good place five miles ahead, which is more comfortable than an inn, not to mention that we all have small tents, maybe camping has a different flavor." ”
Luo Yu said: "I'm afraid you kid want to show it, okay, I want to see what place is more comfortable than the inn, lead the way!" ”
Zhang Yang smiled: "You'll know when you arrive." Then he struck his horse and led the way.
Everyone laughed and kept up, to be honest, during the period from Weize Pass to Taiyuan, it was indeed a long time since I had camped, and I really missed the feeling of being used as a bed in the sky.
The summer rain was short-lived, and it stopped twenty miles after they left Taiyuan, but the sun seemed to want to rest today, and it was not until Shen Shi that it emerged from the dark clouds and lazily shone on the earth.
By this time, it was almost sunset, and the golden sunlight set the clouds on the horizon with a circle of gold, which was very beautiful.
Wuli soon arrived, only to see the sunset, a path about five feet wide and covered with green weeds appeared in front of everyone, on both sides were high and smooth stone walls, looking inside, it was still slowly turning left, I don't know how long.
This trail should have been dug out by hand, but this terrain seems to be a passage specially left by nature, otherwise how could the stone mountain be disconnected here?
Everyone dismounted and said, "It's here after the passage, please come with me!" With that, he led the horse into the passage.
Cheng Xiao and Liu Hao followed closely with Zhang Yang, then Luo Yu, Li Xiuning took Yang Man's hand and followed, and the other three team members followed.
The weeds on the passage are damp, and the soil is a little soft, so there should be a water source nearby.
After walking seven or eight steps forward, turning the corner, the humidity was heavier, and a fresh breeze blew, with a faint floral fragrance, which smelled very good.
After walking more than a dozen steps, Luo Yu's eyes suddenly opened up, and a valley with a square of two hundred square appeared in front of him.
The valley is surrounded by mountains, and on the right side of the mountain is a pool of about fifty or sixty square meters, and the sunset sun does not shine in, but the wind blows, and the water surface is sparkling, and the reflection of the mountains is also dyed with a circle of ripples.
The pond is surrounded by wildflowers of all colors, and the scent of the flowers should be wafting from the valley when they first enter the valley.
In the middle of the valley is a large green meadow, the war horses of the advanced valley have been happily gnawing, and under the cliff on the far left, there are several stone caves of different sizes, which are pitch black and cannot be seen really.
As soon as Li Xiuning and Yang Man entered the valley, when they saw such a beautiful scenery, they let go of Ma Suo and cheered happily, they were still young after all.
All nine people entered the valley, and Zhang Yang said with a smile: "This is a subordinate who stumbled upon his grandfather when he was young to collect medicine, but I didn't expect that after so many years, it has not changed at all." ”
Li Xiuning snuggled in Luo Yu's arms and fell asleep, the tent resisted the breeze outside, and the surroundings were quiet.
Luo Yu couldn't sleep, he thought about it carefully, it seemed that he had fallen for Li Yuan, a Yuan Shoucheng appeared out of thin air, and he made up a few bullshit words, and he believed it?
Lie to the ghost, it is true that he wants Li Xiuning to leave this dangerous whirlpool, but this is understandable, after all, he is a father, and he can't do anything too much for Li Xiuning's safety.
It is their duty to publicize their rotation at the passage of the valley, and if Li Xiuning is not by his side, Luo Yu also wants to chat with them.
Yang Man also wanted to stand guard, but Zhang Yang and they refused, she was very unhappy, and after dinner, she asked Li Xiuning to ask Luo Yu and them to avoid it, went down to the pond to take a bath, and then got into the tent and didn't come out again.
There is no inlet or outlet for this pond, but the water is cold, and it should be directly connected to the underground water vein.
Luo Yu and the others went into the tent after taking a bath, and sprinkled a circle of insect repellent powder around the tent to prevent poisonous insects from coming in.
Those caves of different sizes are the resting places of the herb pickers, not deep, and there are straws on them, just enough to accommodate one person, who has tents to drill the caves.
I don't know if Xue Li received the letter and sent someone to Taiyuan to assist Li Shimin in taking over the special operations intelligence network.
Forget it, let's ask again in Linfen tomorrow, I'm sorry for this silent night if I think about it again, Li Xiuning in her arms hugged her tightly, and after she pouted and changed to a more sticky posture, she fell asleep.
One hundred and eighty miles from Pingyao to Linfen, in order to arrive early, everyone got up at dawn the next day, washed up, ate some dry food, and immediately rode on the war horse that had been fed and drunk, and headed south.
It's still cloudy today, it's almost July, the north is not as hot as the south, and the wind in the mountains is also strong, which is a good weather for hurrying.
Two hours later, they arrived at the northern suburbs of Lingshi County, rested for a while, found a piece of grass for the horses to eat for a while, and then continued on their way.
Bypass Lingshi City, and then a hundred miles to the south is the Hongdong, about three hours to arrive, rest in the Hongdong for half an hour, and then you can reach the north of Linfen at the end of the Shen Shi.
I really don't want to enter Linfen Beicheng again, the impression left on Luo Yu last time was too deep, and I don't know if Xue Li took the time to rectify during this time, it is estimated that he is not available.
Luo Yu also gave Xue Li a task, asking him to make 500,000 sets of horseshoes, and he had to build armor and weapons when he had free time.
If you don't enter Beicheng, you have to go around to Xicheng and go directly to the special combat team training base, so you can see their training results by the way.
As soon as he turned to the West Gate, he met Wu Yunzhao with fifty or sixty silver-armored elite soldiers to greet Luo Yu and them.
Luo Yuzheng was strange, didn't wait for Wu Yun to summon the ceremony, and asked, "Aren't you in Changzhi?" How did you come to Linfen? ”
Wu Yunzhao saluted and said: "Instructor, the student was ordered by General Tang to transfer north to Linfen as early as the beginning of the month to serve as the captain of Xuanwu and garrison Linfen. ”
Luo Yuqi said: "What about Xue Li?" ”
Wu Yunzhao said: "He is a full-time special combat team for training, and he led the team to Luliang Mountain for training in the afternoon of the day before yesterday, and I am afraid that he will not be able to come back in the past two days, so he has to come to pick up the instructor." ”
These personnel arrangements were all arranged by Li Yuan in concealment from Luo Yu, and the special combat personnel such as Changzhi, Jincheng, and Yuncheng, who had some leadership talent, might be transferred to various armies as captains and adjutant generals, and it seems that Li Yuan had already planned for a long time.
Of course, you have to go in Linfen, Wu Yunzhao led the way first, and took Luo Yu and them to the general's mansion where they ate wild boar.
Wu Yunzhao set up a banquet to entertain Luo Yu and his party, but this time there was only mutton, but I don't know how much better it was than dry food.
After dinner, Luo Yu asked everyone to wash up first, leaving Wu Yunzhao alone, and asked him, "How much has the North City Horseshoe been built?" ”
Wu Yunzhao said: "When the students first came, they only built 50,000 sets, and they were all sent to Yuncheng equipment, and on the 15th, another 60,000 sets were built, and they were shipped to Jincheng that night, and they should have arrived now." ”
Li Yuan's arrangement may be to consider that Yuncheng's war horses should be used first to capture Chang'an, so he equipped Yuncheng first, since he has thought about everything, he doesn't worry about it, in front of this kind of big man, don't look too smart.
Don't ask about other things, Luo Yu asked Wu Yunzhao to get busy first, and then went directly to the bathhouse, took a cold shower comfortably, washed off his sweat, and suddenly felt more energetic.
When I came to Li Xiuning's room, I saw that Yang Man was chatting with Li Xiuning, the two little maids were also there last time, and as soon as Luo Yu arrived, they were about to say goodbye and leave.
Luo Yu stopped them and asked, "Why are you still working as maids here?" Didn't I tell you how to make underwear? Business is not doing well? ”
One of the maids smiled and said: "Childe, I won't tell you, the business is very good, we have found more than 30 sisters to rush together, and the supply is still in short supply, no, I heard that the general is back, and the two of us came to thank us." ”
Li Xiuning said with a smile: "Husband, they came to measure the size for us, and said that they would make a few pieces out tonight and send them over tomorrow morning. ”
The two maids said happily: "Congratulations to the general and the son, you are really a match made in heaven." ”
Luo Yu said with a smile: "Don't say kind words, I'll teach you another method to ensure that your output can be doubled several times." ”
The two maids were overjoyed, and hurriedly asked Luo Yu what method was, if he could really double the output several times, then the income would be too considerable.
Luo Yu called the two of them to come to the desk, used a brush to draw the assembly line homework simply, and then said, "Do you each of you now complete one piece alone and then do the next one?" ”
The two nodded, looking at the picture as if they understood.
Luo Yu said: "You divide the underwear into several parts, let one or two people be responsible for a certain part of the whole time, pass it down after it is done, and then combine the next part one by one, and complete it in the last step, so that you can not only be familiar with the process of each part, but also save a lot of time, you think about it." ”
After Luo Yu's words were finished, not only were the two maids shocked, but even Li Xiuning and Yang Man looked at him with wide eyes, this idea was really amazing.
Luo Yu stretched out his hand to fold the paper, handed it to them and said: "As for how many processes to be divided, you decide according to the situation, but I warn you, this is intimate clothing, the output is up, it can't be shoddy, the fabric must be comfortable and soft, otherwise, your business will not last long." ”
Without waiting for the two to answer, Lu Xiao shouted a report outside the door, saying that an emergency military report was sent from the direction of Chang'an.
Luo Yu said to Li Xiuning: "Lady, I'm sorry for you." ”
Li Xiuning nodded, Luo Yu walked out of the room quickly, and saw Lu Xiao holding a red envelope in his hand, which was the intelligence level naturally made by the special combat team, sorted by red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and white, with red being the most urgent information.
What kind of emergency will happen in Chang'an? Could it be something about Yang Xuanwu?
